The release of DD OS 8.0 (let’s call it that for short), late last month, was major release that introduced some significant security, cloud and manageability enhancements. I will unpack these in a little more detail in the following few posts. With this release however, Dell also introduced two brand new high-end Data Domain appliances based on the next-gen PowerEdge 16th Gen server platform.
The DD9910 and DD9410 are appliances positioned for larger Enterprises and commercial customers. The DD9410 starts at an entry level capacity of 192TBu and scales up to 768TBu when the appliance is at its max configuration, while the DD9910 starts at an entry level capacity of 576TBu and scales up to 1.5PBu respectively. These are direct replacements and enhancements to their predecessors, the DD9900 and DD9400.
I’ll attach a link to the relevant datasheets at the end of this short post, but I thought it would be nice to take a little virtual tour of what the new platforms look like in the flesh. Everybody likes to get their hands on the hardware, so hopefully this will be the next best thing…..
As mentioned above, I will follow up over the next while with a a bit of a deeper dive into the both the software and hardware features of this release. In the meantime I have attached some handy links to official documentation/blogs etc. Note: To access these you may need a Dell partner/customer support logon.
Enjoy !
